Description
EN
Beardown is just north of Two Bridges and on the edge of Merrivale firing range. The cache is located on the eastern slopes of the down, well away from the range boundary which runs north/south to the west of Beardown Tors.
The easiest route to the cache is to take the footpath that follows Devonport Leat. Park at Two Bridges & take the path up to Beardown Farm, just north of the farm the path branches north east along the leat. This route takes you to within a couple of hundred metres of the cache - see waypoints listed below. Ordnance Survey map "OL 28" is recommended for route planning on the moor.
The cache is a regular size container hidden among some scattered rocks on the hillside.
